Launch yourself into the universe of
BattleTech
with new technologies and prove your heroism
to House Lords and Khans alike! Visit strange
and distant worlds, and battle alien beasts
beyond your wildest dreams! Demonstrate
new combat techniques both in and out of the
cockpit while navigating the intricate layers of
neo-feudal politics! Whether your are a House
regular, a pirate smuggler, a noble scion, a
deep space explorer, or just a thrill-seeking
adventurer, bring your experience to a whole
new level!
A Time of War Companion
introduces
advanced rules for
BattleTech
role-players and
gamemasters alike. This core book expansion
showcases advanced gameplay options
including Advanced Tier martial arts, “hero-
mode” gameplay, metaskills, Trait Checks,
and more! Use character design templates to
quickly generate new characters and NPCs, or
even convert older characters from previous
MechWarrior
rule sets! Gamemasters, use the
world-building rules to bring your players to
exotic new locations, introduce them to equally
exotic fauna you have created to greet them
there, and give them the chance to ight for—
or against—a host of new technologies rarely
seen in the field! The tools to enhance your
role-playing campaigns are here for the taking!
